Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups fresh, clean snow
- 1 cup heavy cream or whole milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Gather four cups of fresh, clean snow. Avoid snow near roads or areas where it might have collected dirt or pollutants. Place the snow in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, mix the heavy cream (or milk), sugar, and vanilla extract until the sugar dissolves.
- Pour the cream mixture over the snow.
- Stir everything together quickly using a spoon or spatula until the mixture thickens into a soft, creamy ice cream consistency. Work fast so the snow does not melt completely.
- Serve the snow ice cream immediately.
Notes
- For a richer, creamier snow ice cream, substitute the cream and sugar with 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Add flavor variations by mixing in chocolate syrup, a few drops of food coloring, or sprinkles before serving.
- Taste a small amount of the snow first to confirm it is clean and safe for consumption.
